Clunking/ rattling in and around rear seat.

OK so here is my problem. I know this is a chevy so rattles are fixed by turning up the radio but this one is driving me nuts. Yesterday i sat in the trunk while my bro drove around. i have determined that the rattle/ clunking is near the bottom of the rear passenger seat. I have eliminated the possible rattles related to hitting the bump stops (powell YYZ so no more crashing onto them on bumps). This rattle is on almost every bump, small and large, but it seems be be worse when the rear seats are folded down. Does anyone have any ideas as to what needs to be tightened/glued down? I can try to take a video of the sound later if anyone is interested.

There is a TSB out, something about the hinge at the bottom of the rear seatback.
The fix is a piece of anti rattle tape in a specific place - sorry I can't remember exactly where.

Bet Coblast would know
